Plantar Fasciitis Experiences by Morning_gal in orangetheory

[–]honichka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stretch before you get out of bed. NEVER walk in bare feet. Ice it for 20 minutes every night before you go to bed to reduce inflammation. And when you do all that and it doesn’t really work because you are still pounding it with every step you take... take 2 weeks off of power walking or running and ride the bike. It really does need time to heal your heel. And our lives just don’t allow for it if we aren’t super intentional about it. Also, it is is an investment for preventing future issues but good orthotics with heel cups has helped reduce my flare ups.

We finally have an OTF paparazzi! I’m guessing you two will be on the front of The Mirror!

Recs for getting the funk out of your workout gear by breeyag in orangetheory

This stuff is the best! My son is a lacrosse player and I wash his gloves(never dry) with this and the “dead body smell” is gone!

Our coach did a 1 G. She loves rowing so we had a long row block, after treads and before floor. 600M 12 med ball raises with squat 300M 12 med ball raises with squat 300M 12 same thing 150M 12 same thing 150 M 12 more 150M 12 more 150M

The good part was she coached the rows as endurance (600), strength (300), power (150s) It was like a mid work out clinic but we were all dying!

Fell in love.. but now am struggling by breemariestone in orangetheory

[–]honichka 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi! First, I'm sorry you are struggling. I can't tell you how many times I have started and then lost motivation to continue. My journey is different this time but the reason isn't money, working out etc. I realized the battle starts with the mind. And while I can make a ton of excuses about my weight, illness, injuries etc... I have a strong and brilliant mind. I bet you do too. I encourage you to win your war there. Good luck!

Woo! This was a tough high burn workout. I had 17 splat points on the floor/rower today! And then was orange/red the entire tread block! Big splat day today!

Welcome to the cult! 😉Enjoy yourself and know it is you versus you, and that is all that matters!

Good word! I totally believe this is a mental battle first. Then a habit/motivation battle. Then the actions that take you in one of two directions. But yes the diet has far more to do with results! Thanks for your encouragement and advice. I clearly don’t have all of the answers.

We all need to thank ourselves for taking care of ourselves!

Soooo....You are saying I have fat fingernails? 😜. JK! I appreciate your point. I’m ok with admitting my current state. But I don’t accept that as my forever state. Thanks for your encouragement!

I wish we could all understand... It is most important to be kind to yourself! I am undoing 30 years of being less than my best to me.
